Summary

Sporting a lone green sneaker, B B King sings the "One Shoe Blues" while his faithful guitar, Lucille, comments here and there with those famous soulful blues notes. Sock puppets make brief surprise appearances - and, in the case of that saxophone-playing, rhinestone-sunglasses-wearing Momsock, grills B B on where he might have left his shoe.

One Shoe Blues Summary

One Shoe Blues by Sandra Boynton

The song that first appeared - to widespread acclaim - in the celebrated "Blue Moo: 17 Jukebox Hits from Way Back Never" now becomes a true star turn. The DVD showcases B.B. King's legendary musical talent and sublime good-natured performance. Boynton writes the companion storybook with her unmistakable cadence and humor, and illustrates the book with lively and fanciful photographs from the video and beyond. Sock puppets lend pizzazz and gravitas throughout. The subject is pure fun that every child (and parent) can relate to, the story of a missing shoe. Sporting a lone green sneaker, B.B. King sings the "One Shoe Blues" while his faithful guitar, Lucille, comments here and there with those famous soulful blues notes. A supporting cast of sock puppets make brief surprise appearances - and, in the case of that saxophone-playing, rhinestone-sunglasses-wearing Momsock, grills B.B. on where he might have left his shoe.
